Rhythmic Initiation is best used for:

• teaching of a movement or improved mobility

• reduce tone

• cause co-contraction/stability

• muscle stretching

Rhythmic rotation is best used for:

• teaching of a movement or improved mobility

• reduce tone

• cause co-contraction/stability

• muscle stretching

Contract-relax is best used for:

• teaching of a movement or improved mobility

• reduce tone

• cause co-contraction/stability

• muscle stretching

Answer explanation

contract-relax and hold-relax are ALWAYS used to reduce spinal reflexive tightness, NOT strength

Rhythmic stabilization is best used for:

• teaching of a movement or improved mobility

• reduce tone

• cause co-contraction/stability

• muscle stretching

Answer explanation

contract-relax and hold-relax are ALWAYS used to reduce spinal reflexive tightness, NOT strength

Combination of Isotonics is best used for:

• improving postural muscles

• poor antigravity control

• improve motor control/learning how to move

• improving ROM

Answer explanation

contract-relax and hold-relax are ALWAYS used to reduce spinal reflexive tightness, NOT strength
